60 yr old in Ks looking for support and friendship

Options
Hi everyone,
I'm Sandy from Kansas. Joined this site a couple of years ago and stopped for awhile. I have rejoined
and have to lose weight for health issues. Looking for friends to support and motivate me and I will do the same
for you. We can do this together! :)

    Howdy Sandy! Welcome to the group :flowerforyou:

    Feel free to send a friend request if you wish - I've been active on MFP for just over 2 months, and still have quite a bit to lose :grumble:

    Sandy, think how much better you will feel in a year. Yo-yos that go down and up (include me) can really appreciate the value of taking care of one's self. I've read these forums and found it is often a difficult life experience that causes us to fall off the wagon.

    Hi! I just joined this group today...I didn't know how to join a group??? LOL I'm not that great with computers... I'm from the country part of New York. South of Seneca and Cayuga Lake...beautiful country! I've been doing MFP for a couple years. I lost probably 20 pounds and slowly put it back on. I have to learn more about maintaining, I guess! This time the doc said I have to lose at least 20 lbs. ...so here I am. I have trouble with acid reflex (Gerd) and High cholesterol. Got to get this under control! We can do this...I'm in! Jen

    I'm 77 and on a redo. A set back is not failing. Failure is not falling down but failing to get up! My goal is 15lbs.

    Oh dear. I am new to this group but it looks like the person who started this topic is already gone. But I am in it for the long run and finding this supportive group looks like it will really be helpful.

    Looking forward to getting acquainted with you all. Have a great weekend.

    Hi
    One of my MFP fiends suggested I check out this sight. Looks as if everyone is very supportive. I'm starting over and like everyone else I'm looking for info and support and if I can support others too.:flowerforyou:
